FAQ

What is Ethereum liquid staking?

Ethereum (ETH) liquid staking is a way for users to earn staking rewards for helping to secure and validate transactions on the Ethereum network by contributing their ETH to validator nodes via Ankr Staking. Ethereum is one of the most widely adopted Layer 1 blockchains in the world as the originator of smart contracts and decentralized applications.

How does Ethereum liquid staking work?

Ankr Staking offers Ethereum holders the opportunity to stake their ETH and, in return, claim the ETH Liquid Staking token — ankrETH. The ankrETH token is a reward-bearing token, meaning that the fair value of 1 ankrETH token vs. ETH increases over time as staking rewards accumulate inside the token. The ankrETH token also offers instant liquidity for your staked ETH, enabling you to connect ankrETH with DeFi platforms and earn several more layers of rewards.

What are Ethereum liquid staking rewards?

Ankr’s ETH liquid staking rewards are delivered via holding the ankrETH token. The ankrETH token is reward-bearing, meaning its quantity stays the same from the moment of staking. Instead, it appreciates in value in relation to ETH, so the price stakers can sell 1 ankrETH for will grow over time due to reward accumulation.
